I thought a bit more about T self-disclosure and I think there's a very fine line between self-disclosure that benefits therapy and self-disclosure that doesnīt. I have always been pro self-disclosure but in some cases I donīt think itīs exclusionary positive.
For me personally in my therapy I like getting to know a bit about my T but sometimes I can feel I donīt like what she has done, say during her teenage years. Itīs nothing serious at all but itīs nothing I would do or recommend any other teenager to do. (Iīm an adult now but anyway).
She tells me such things out of caring and to normalize things but values are something that canīt just be changed. I donīt think she needs me or demands me to approve of what she did, itīs not about that but about how I can keep a good image of her. For me itīs important that the T is a bit of a role model but I understand not many people are if you really scrutinize them.
Iīm far away from feeling I have lost my faith in my T but I see the danger in self-disclosure.
Can self-disclosure be too much, has anyone in here lost faith in your T because of things she or he shared with you?
